Feeling overwhelmed and stressed? Try this simple Indian ritual to find inner peace and calmness.
Begin by lighting a few incense sticks and placing them in a holder. The aroma will soothe your senses and create a relaxing atmosphere.
Sit comfortably on the floor or a cushion and close your eyes. Take a few deep breaths and focus on your breathing.
Now, take a pinch of turmeric powder and mix it with a few drops of water to form a paste. Apply this paste on your forehead, between your eyebrows.
Turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce stress and anxiety. It is also known to improve brain function.
As you apply the turmeric paste, visualize all your worries and stress melting away. Imagine yourself in a peaceful and happy state.
After a few minutes, gently wipe off the paste with a damp cloth. Take a moment to feel the weight of your stress lifted off your shoulders.
Next, take a small bowl of water and add a few drops of rose water to it. Use this water to wash your face, neck, and hands.
Rose water has a calming effect on the mind and body. It also helps to hydrate and refresh the skin, leaving you feeling rejuvenated.
Finally, sit in silence for a few more minutes, focusing on your breath and feeling grateful for the peace and calmness you have achieved. Repeat this ritual whenever you feel overwhelmed and watch your stress melt away.
